“Growing Demand for Edge Data Centre Services”
- A prominent trend in the service market for data centre is the surge in demand for edge computing services, driven by the need for faster data processing and reduced latency near the data source.
- Edge data centres are gaining traction as they support applications requiring real-time analysis such as autonomous vehicles, smart cities, and AR/VR.
- Service providers are increasingly investing in micro data centres and localised IT infrastructure to offer tailored support for decentralized workloads.
- For instance, in March 2024, Equinix Inc. announced its expansion of edge data centre offerings in Asia and North America to support the growing demand for real-time processing across IoT and AI applications.
- This shift toward edge computing is expected to reshape the service market for data centre, pushing companies to decentralize and scale their service delivery frameworks.
